Blood pressure effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists: Mechanisms, trial evidence and Real‐world data

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

The angiotensin II receptors type 1 and 2 modulate astrocytes and their crosstalk with microglia and neurons in an in vitro model of ischemic stroke

BMC Neuroscience
Background Astrocytes are the most abundant cell type of the central nervous system and are fundamentally involved in homeostasis, neuroprotection, and synaptic plasticity.

Characteristics and temporal trends of EU teratological safety signals and information dissemination to healthcare professionals in the Netherlands—A contribution of the ConcePTION project

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Although regulatory responses to safety signals have been studied, pregnancy‐specific data and their dissemination to medical professionals remain unclear. This study examined the characteristics and temporal trends of teratological safety signals prompting the European Medicines Agency to implement risk minimization measures.

Standardization of measurement and reporting of medication adherence using the TEN‐SPIDERS tool for claims data

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first open‐source tool to implement the complete TEN‐SPIDERS framework in linked datasets for the determination of the PDC for medication adherence. The TEN‐SPIDERS tool enables transparent, reproducible medication adherence research through automated reporting of all calculation parameters and flexible customization options ...

Effect of angiotensin II and losartan on the phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages from Balb/C mice

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2004
Angiotensin II (AII), a product of rennin-angiotensin system, exerts an important role on the function of immune system cells. In this study, the effect of AII on the phagocytic activity of mouse peritoneal macrophages was assessed.

Angiotensin receptors: history and mysteries [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 2000
Angiotensin receptors became relatively easy to study when radioactive derivatives of the peptide were synthesized for radioimmunoassays. Binding assays in vitro led to the discovery of receptors in many tissues different from those involved in the classic actions of angiotensin.

Cardiovascular and neuropsychiatric outcomes with PCSK9 inhibitors in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A retrospective cohort study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Study design and main findings. After 1:1 propensity score matching, 60 885 PCSK9 inhibitor users and 60 885 statin‐only users with ASCVD were compared. Kaplan–Meier curves show 12‐month cumulative event‐free survival for MACE, psychiatric disease, and neurodegenerative disease.
